Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Cadrofloxacin, also known as Caderofloxacin and CS-940, is a novel fluoroquinolone antibacterial. The activities of CS-940 against gram-positive cocci and gram-negative rods, including methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus and penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae, were comparable to those of tosufloxacin, with MICs at which 90% of the strains were inhibited (MIC90s) of 0.5 microg/ml or less. Against methicillin-resistant S. aureus, CS-940 was as active as tosufloxacin, with a MIC90 of 16 microg/ml. The efficacy of CS-940 against murine respiratory infections due to S. pneumoniae or Haemophilus influenzae was better than those of tosufloxacin and sparfloxacin. The efficacy of oral doses of CS-940 reflected not only potent in vitro activity but also a high transmigration ratio from the bloodstream to lung tissues.

Biological target:
Cadrofloxacin (Caderofloxacin; CS-940), an active fluoroquinolone, is effective against aerobic/anaerobic Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.
In vitro activity:
The in vitro activities of CS-940, a new fluoroquinolone, were compared with those of a group of other drugs. The activities of CS-940 against gram-positive cocci and gram-negative rods, including methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus and penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae, were comparable to those of tosufloxacin, with MICs at which 90% of the strains were inhibited (MIC90s) of 0.5 microg/ml or less. Against methicillin-resistant S. aureus, CS-940 was as active as tosufloxacin, with a MIC90 of 16 microg/ml. Reference: Antimicrob Agents Chemother. 1997 Nov;41(11):2582-5. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9371375/
In vivo activity:
The in vivo activities of CS-940, a new 6-fluoro-8-difluoromethoxy quinolone, were compared with those of ciprofloxacin, tosufloxacin, sparfloxacin, and levofloxacin. CS-940 showed potent bactericidal activity against S. aureus, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In oral treatment of mouse systemic infections caused by S. aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptococcus pyogenes, E. coli, K. pneumoniae, Serratia marcescens, and P. aeruginosa, CS-940 was more effective than ciprofloxacin, sparfloxacin, and levofloxacin against all strains tested. Against experimental pneumonia with K. pneumoniae in mice, CS-940 was the most effective of all the quinolones tested. These results suggest that CS-940 may be effective in the therapy of various bacterial infections.
